A Good Idea: Window Screen Labels

Today is officially the first day of summer (finally!!!), so it is time to talk about summerizing your wood fantasy blinds and making the seasonal switch from storm windows to screens. One way to make it easier? Three words: window screen labels.

Use a label maker to make labels to identify which room and specific frame a screen or storm window fits. If you don’t have a label maker, simply jot down the information on a strip of painters’ tape with a permanent marker. Then, stick the labels to a top corner of each window or screen. How easy is that?
